âThe Promâ is available on Netflix, and âWander Darklyâ is in theaters and on Amazon Prime (for a fee).
THE PROM
The Broadway musical comedy âThe Promâ makes a lively and entertaining transition to the screen with sparkling musical numbers and stunning choreography.
Directed by Ryan Murphy (the man behind TVs âGleeâ), the filmâs absolutely perfect cast is led by the incomparable Meryl Streep as beguiling Broadway star Dee Dee Allen, a not-so-young diva whose career is slumping. Streep matches well with British stage star and late night TV talk show host James Corden, who plays Barry Glickman.
